Day 11- Mould

With a larger quantity of food coming into the house it can be common for some of that food to go bad and possibly even develop some mould. Dogs will then still eat it, which leads to some serious medical conditions and can even be fatal!

If you have children within the home that like to take food into their bedrooms, make sure they are bringing the plates, cutlery and any cups back into the kitchen to be washed up and not left forgotten under the bed.

Also make sure that bins (particularly if you have a food waste bin) is kept out of reach as this is a common place for dogs to get hold of mouldy food, and that they are emptied regularly.

If you think your dog may have eaten some mouldy food, time is of utmost importance, contact your vet immediately!
